And the Walls Came Tumbling Down

Joshua 6:20 So the people shouted, and the trumpets were blown. As soon as the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the people shouted a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they captured the city.
This is a bible truth about the people of God relying totally on God for victory! The town of Jericho would not bow to it's appointed master, Israel. The people shut themselves up tightly, thinking they were safe in the fortified city. Because of their hardened hearts, God condemned them to destruction. But in that city, there was a faithful one who did not perish.
Heb.11:31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had given a friendly welcome to the spies.
Joshua 6:25 But Rahab the prostitute and her father's household and all who belonged to her, Joshua saved alive. And she has lived in Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Rahab is listed in the lineage of Christ!
Matt.1:1-18 

1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. 
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 
3 and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram, 
4 and Ram the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 
5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 
6 and Jesse the father of David the king. And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah, 
7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph, 
8 and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah, 
9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 
10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos, and Amos the father of Josiah, 
11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon. 
12 And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 
13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor, 
14 and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud, 
15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, 
16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ. 
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.
Lord, help us not to remember who we were but who we are in You! Help us to teach repentance that leads to salvation through You. Amen
